Thus, the assessee claimed unaccounted small trading transactions inclusive of capital and profit were duly invested in the stock and the same has duly offered for taxation in the relevant year. Thus, taxing the cash deposits in the OBC Bank will amount to double taxation which is contrary to the basic principle of taxation. 6. Without prejudice to the above submissions and to buy peace of mind, the assessee offered peak credit of the cash transaction Rs.6,05,000/- recorded in the OBC Bank account as his income for the present Asst.Year 2012-13. 7.

The assessee has failed to furnish supporting evidences of his unaccounted business such as purchase and sales bills, stock details, name of suppliers and customers etc. which indicate that the assessee has made retail trading business and has received cash out of such activities and the same were deposited out of such receipts in the bank. In the case of the assessee there was a survey on 9.1.2014 in which the assessee has disclosed unaccounted stock of Rs.51,21,318/-. The appellant has tried to make out the case that whatever quantum of investment/profit earned out of such unaccounted trading activities have been parked in the unaccounted stock and the said stock has been disclosed that the income of F.Y. 2013-14.

The Id CIT(A) also erred in law and on facts in not appreciating that the appellant had also adhered to the statement made during survey with regard to disclosure obtained by survey team with respect to excess or unaccounted stock and hence the statement made could not be rejected in part. It be so held and submissions made be directed to be accepted 5. Both the lower authorities erred in making and in confirming addition in the hands of the appellant with regard to the gross deposits of the various amounts in the impugned bank account.

The AO further held that the assessee has not maintained any account for the unaccounted business of Rs.1.09 crores whereas books of accounts are maintained for wholesale business of Rs.101.09 crores. The assessee further claimed that the undisputed fact as it emerged from the bank account itself is that, there were cash deposits and withdrawals either through bearer cheques or cross bearer cheques. Thus, in nutshell the rotation of the funds throughout the year was an undisputed fact available on the record and such rotation was nowhere disputed by the ld.AO also.
